Come, Lord Jesus

 

Let today be the beginning of a love                that will grow             

            forever and ever

Let today be the beginning of a bond that grows deeper and deeper

             and time shall not sever

 

Come Lord Jesus, Come Lord Jesus, I wait for your appearing- for your appearing

 

Let today be the beginning of a trust in your future grace-

             as sure as the things you have done

Let today be the beginning of a love that burns in my heart

             seven times as bright as the noonday sun

 

Come Lord Jesus, Come Lord Jesus, I wait for your appearing- for your appearing

 

 

Let today be the day I lay down my life for the life

             that pours from your throne like a flood

Let today be the beginning of a love that is not of this world

            But born of your spirit, washed in your blood

 

Come Lord Jesus, Come Lord Jesus, I wait for your appearing- for your appearing

Maranatha, Lord, Maranatha ,Lord, I wait for your appearing- for your appearing.
